What games do you play online?

Dara Robinson

This is relating to my other thread.

Since we are going to be hosting gaming servers for you, I wanna know what games you play. Although a gamer myself and I like to think that I know what we are into, I just wanna check.

The games in the poll seem to be the most popular and the top 3 to 6 (depending on how many of each game we run with) will be hosted as our first public servers when we go live.

If the poll misses a few games just say so guys. They will be all considerd. This is for you as well as us.

QuakeWorld, Quake3, the MMORPGs, Halo, Falcon4, Flashpoint

I dunno if it is possible to run a MMORPG, but have a look into it, lots of peeps would like to do something other than run around blowing each other to bits

Absolutely Love vietcong multiplayer, dont know if many of you play it, but if you have the game and haven't tried it online, you should give it a go. Also played some H&D online as per previous thread and think it has real potential...

Planet side server? how would that work? can one host a server of that game?
UO is being looked into
Subspace, its now called continum. And yes. I will be running one at some stage

Halo, that seems to come up a lot. I'll have to look into that

satchmo

Desert Combat, Desert Combat & more Desert Combat! That is all.

Ronan|Raven

I see no TFC! oh and also desert combat to dangerous levels.

Retr0gamer

Kaillera server for old arcade games would be very nice.

i_am_dogboy

RTCW, UT2003, giants:citizen kabuto, starcraft, red alert 2 generals

but do you know what would really rock? super smash brothers melee online

jaggeh

im planning on having a carebear free UO shard running.

Thieves welcome

Pugsley

Desert Combat would be good, Id love a TFC server but I doubt you'd get much of a crowd on it.

Dcully

Server for the the most realistic one of all Red Orchestra and a Call of Duty one too while ur at it
Irish gamers already have CS,DOD,NS servers to name a few.

What we reallyneed is an Irish Live for speed server.

If you were charging entry to these servers then well this post wouldn't be here. Seeing as your essentially announcing a public service of use to the unwashed masses that throng to this board, then it's fine by me.

Edit: I just saw Dev's post on that other thread. Fair enough, I was going to merge the two threads but this one will do.

oeNeo

TFC in all fairness.

Rise of nations i play alot of that game alot on line.

Hi Dara,

Good luck with the server etc, i'll definately be having a look. What's with all the FPSs though? Can I suggest a few RPGs? Neverwinter Nights, Dungeon Siege etc.?

Check out the roleplaying board for more input.

LoGiE

Day Of Defeat tbh:) And Defo a Kaillera server!

Kold

Counterstrike - Anything else is for gheys :P

LISTEN UP
(just to get your attention hopefully while you scroll past)
I voted for AA purely because there are not enough European servers and I think people would play it more if there were! I found it hard deciding between DOD and TS and AA. I think DoD or TS should be high on your list too. I don't think you should make a CS server because god knows there are enough of them already! The same can be said for Bf1942. That's my 2 cent.

DapperGent

DoD is the only thing I've ever really gotten into.

Fantastic game.

Dara Robinson

quarryman, your right. Problem is that I don’t know enough about it. So I will, very soon, check the role-playing board for more input.

Kold, hmmmm. Although I will have CS servers up I might be running some old beta versions for the non-n00bs

Ry. I totaly agree with you about AA. Also high on my list are DoD and TS. (And i would not have scrolled past, I have and will read every post. What you guys have to say is important to me.)

DapperGent, if that’s all u ever got into... I'll make u one asap. DoD is high on my list.


The thing is that I have some embarrassing and bad news. We have had some serious hiccups and I believe that I will not be able to go live until after Xmas. More on that when I know more.
Good thing is, I suppose, that it will give me more time to get everything ready for a proper launch.

Guys, if anyone can help with programming stats systems for games that, either, don’t have any or they are not very good. And or if you want (and think that it would be successful) to get a game server that I have not mentioned and there are only a handful out there please help me out. Email me on Dara@Gameservers.ie, get me on msn Dara@Gameservers.ie or irc (quakenet, as if u did not know that) #GameServers.ie.
If you cant get in touch with me and you know Jaggeh, well he is my right hand man so he will pass the msg on. Good ideas are always welcome.

I also hope to have reviews and so on, on the site. We will also need mods and more for the servers (although experience has taught me to be careful in choosing who admin’s servers).
So contact us if you want.
